When the power flowed backward and dissipated, the Essential Aura Shield would naturally dissipate as well. However, it was only for a very short moment and could be adjusted immediately.
In most battles, it was very difficult to grasp that moment of opportunity. However, Chu Mu had managed to do so because he had mastered the Sword of Will.
The Sword of Will allowed Chu Mu to quickly determine his opponent's movements and so on. It was also easier for him to grasp the signs of the opponent's power flow.
Chu Mu had been staring at Xuanshui Ancestor the moment the Sword of Light slashed down. When he saw that the Ancestor's attack had missed and his power had flowed backward, he had already stabbed out with his sword.
The Eternal Sword Will, the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence, the Rules of Gold, the Rules of Wind, the Power of Heaven and Earth, and the True Meaning of the Sword Thrust …
The sword was silent and extremely fast.
Silent Sword Form!
The power of the sword was terrifying. It should be known that a sword technique recognized by the Forest of Ten Thousand Sword Steles was a sword technique that countless people would fight for outside. As one of the top thirty sword forms in the Forest of Ten Thousand Sword Steles, the value of the Silent Sword Form was unimaginable. Its power had reached an astonishing peak under the True Meaning of the Sword Thrust.
Just as the Black Water Patriarch sensed something and turned his head, a sword-light silently pierced through his forehead and penetrated it.
A terrifying power burst forth from the sword and strangled his spirit.
The Six-star Saint level Xuanshui Ancestor was dead!
After killing Xuanshui Ancestor with one sword, Chu Mu made a prompt decision and quickly retreated to open up the distance between them.
"Die!" Ancestor Yellow Earth and Ancestor Green Wood had already adjusted themselves and attacked Chu Mu.
The huge yellowish-brown finger was like an ant that could be crushed to death as it twisted toward Chu Mu. The pressure suddenly increased and thousands of branches appeared out of thin air and lashed out in all directions, wanting to tear Chu Mu to pieces.
At the critical moment, a figure appeared. The bright Sword Light seemed to have descended and slashed out, shattering the huge finger and the thousands of branches.
The terrifying aura of a Seven Star Sword Saint caused Patriarch Yellow Earth and Patriarch Green Wood to tremble. They no longer dared to attack. Instead, they did their best to resist, their faces filled with vigilance.
Chu Mu's sword pierced through the center of Black Water Ancestor's eyebrows and his body fell to the ground.
The body of a six-star Martial Saint was also very strong. Even after falling from a height of a thousand meters, he didn't suffer much damage. Instead, he smashed a hole in the ground.
This sudden turn of events caused everyone to be dumbfounded, unable to react in time.
A Six-star Saint Level Ancestor of the Profound Water Palace was dead. Moreover, he was killed by an Eighth Heavenly Layer Nirvana cultivator.
An Eighth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Realm expert killed a Six Star Martial Saint?
With this thought, everyone felt their brains twitching. How was this possible? How could an Eighth Heavenly Layer Nirvana Realm expert kill a Six Star Martial Saint expert?
It was like an illusion.
However, Black Water Patriarch's body fell to the ground, creating a crater. It was a ghastly sight.
"What a terrifying grasp of timing."
"That's right. He seized the moment when the opponent's strength was flowing backward and killed him with a sword strike."
If the timing was perfect, it would not be difficult for the weak to defeat the strong. However, the more powerful a person was, the more unique his grasp of his own flaws. He would try his best to minimize and avoid the appearance of his flaws. Even if they appeared, he could quickly eliminate them.
The weak would be suppressed by the aura of the strong. They would focus on resisting the aura of the strong and would not be able to divert their attention to other things. How could they have the ability to catch the opponent's fleeting flaw?
In fact, if the Great Radiant Sword had not fallen and attracted the full attention of the three Patriarchs, Chu Mu would not have dared to approach, let alone use his sword.
The combination of the Great Radiant Sword slashing down attracted the attention of Black Water Ancestor and the other two. Chu Mu's Sword of Intent had predicted the opponent's movement in advance. His own ability to resist aura was outstanding, his Eternal Sword Intent was supreme, and his Silent Sword Style was terrifyingly powerful. All these factors combined to create such a shocking one-hit kill.
This scene could not be replicated. Even if it happened again, Chu Mu would not be completely confident.
"Not only has his grasp of timing reached an astonishing level, the power of that sword strike is unimaginable. It is soundless and as fast as light. It is impossible to guard against."
"I now believe that he can kill a one-star Saint with his cultivation at the Eighth Heavenly Layer of Nirvana. It is true that he relied on his own strength and not some treasure."
"That's right. At least until now, I have not seen any signs of him using any treasure."
Countless discussions sounded from the distant spectators.
In the sky above the True Sword Sect, Patriarch Yellow Earth and Patriarch Green Wood were both ashen. In front of them was a tall middle-aged man dressed in white robes that exuded the power of light.
"Sir, could it be that you are also from the True Sword Sect …" Patriarch Yellow Earth stammered.
"My name is Xia Zhenkong, one of the Elders of the True Sword Sect." The tall middle-aged man in white robes seemed to be announcing to the world.
"Xia Zhenkong …"
"This name is very familiar. I've definitely heard it before, and more than once."
"Xia Zhenkong … Seven Star Sword Saint … Light Dao …"
"He is Light Sword Saint Xia Zhenkong, the leader of the Great Light Mountain in the Firmament Territory. He is the number one Sword Saint in the Firmament Territory." Exclamations rang out. Only then did the crowd realize the identity of this Seven Star Sword Saint who had mastered the Light Dao.
The number one Sword Saint in the Firmament Territory, the leader of the Great Light Mountain, the Seven Star Sword Saint Xia Zhenkong, whose name was Light.
The powerful Light Sword Saint Xia Zhenkong was actually an Elder of the True Sword Sect?
For a moment, the crowd could not wrap their heads around it. It was too shocking.
With a Seven Star Sword Saint Elder, the strength of the True Sword Sect had to be reevaluated. It was much stronger than the Mysterious Water Palace.
With a Seven Star Sword Saint and seven Two to Five Star Sword Saints, the strength of the True Sword Sect had reached an astonishing height. In terms of the strength of their experts, they could be ranked in the top 100 of the Canglan Dynasty.
However, the True Sword Sect's shortcomings were also obvious. They were the number and strength of their disciples.
"Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. We were only pulled over by the Black Water Patriarch to help. Now that the Black Water Patriarch is dead, I can swear that my sect and I will not cause any more trouble for the True Sword Sect," Patriarch Yellow Earth said with difficulty under Xia Zhenkong's imposing aura.
A mountain of light appeared behind Xia Zhenkong. It was his Dharma Idol.
The peak of Qi Condensation was the Dharma Idol. Usually, one had to reach the Seven Star Saint Realm to be able to condense Qi Condensation into a Dharma Idol.
The difference between condensed Qi Condensation and Dharma Idol was obvious. This was why Patriarch Green Wood and Patriarch Yellow Earth found it so difficult to resist Xia Zhenkong's Qi Condensation.
"That's right. I also promise that the Green Wood Palace and I will not cause any trouble for the True Sword Sect," Patriarch Green Wood said hurriedly.
Xia Zhenkong sneered, but he didn't answer because this wasn't something he could decide.
As if they understood this, Patriarch Yellow Earth and Patriarch Green Wood looked at Chu Mu. They looked at the person who had killed the Mysterious Water Ancestor with a single strike.
"Aren't the two of you too naive?" Chu Mu said unhurriedly.
Indeed, regardless of why they had come to the True Sword Sect, it was an undeniable fact that they had become enemies with the True Sword Sect. Since that was the case, the Mysterious Water Ancestor was dead. The Seven Star Sword Saint Xia Zhenkong was present. The two of them knew that they were no match for him, so they wanted to leave. The price they had to pay was merely to not cause any trouble for the True Sword Sect. Was that possible?
With the True Sword Sect's strength, they would not fear the Yellow Earth Palace or the Green Wood Palace even if they all came.
"Otherwise, as long as the sect master's request is not excessive, I can agree to it," Patriarch Yellow Earth said.
"The Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace will each take out a hundred million upper-grade elemental pills, a million jin of yellow earth copper ore, and ten thousand Qingyuan Grass. They will also swear that they will never provoke the True Sword Sect or become enemies with it. No matter where, the disciples of the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace will have to stay away from the True Sword Sect's disciples," Chu Mu said unhurriedly.
When the spectators heard this, they were all dumbfounded. What kind of condition was this? It was even more ruthless than killing someone.
Just by looking at Patriarch Yellow Earth and Patriarch Green Wood's expressions, they were extremely ugly. Their eyelids were twitching, and they were gnashing their teeth. If they were not locked down by Xia Zhenkong's aura, they would have already gone berserk and killed Chu Mu.
A hundred million upper-grade elemental pills was nothing to the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace. The problem was the yellow earth copper ore and the Qingyuan Grass.
In other words, the yellow earth copper ore was a specialty of the Yellow Earth Palace. It was a special metal ore that could only be produced by the Yellow Earth Palace's special location and cultivation methods.
The value of the yellow earth copper ore was actually not very high. The problem was that there was too much of it.
It had to be known that the Yellow Earth Palace only produced around a hundred thousand jin of yellow earth copper ore in a year. A million jin of yellow earth copper ore was equivalent to ten years of the Yellow Earth Palace's production.
A million jin of yellow earth copper ore was far more valuable than a hundred million upper-grade elemental pills.
Similar to the Yellow Earth Palace, the Qingyuan Grass was also a specialty of the Green Wood Palace. It could only be produced by the Green Wood Palace's cultivation method.
Ten thousand Qingyuan Grass was also equivalent to ten years of the Green Wood Palace's production.
A million catties of yellow earth copper ore and ten thousand stalks of Green Origin Grass were already hard for Patriarch Yellow Earth and Patriarch Green Wood to accept. The following conditions made them even more furious.
The disciples of the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace could not provoke the True Sword Sect. Fine, they could agree. The disciples of the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace could not take the initiative to become enemies with the True Sword Sect. Fine, they could also agree. After all, they had previously said that they would not cause trouble for the True Sword Sect.
However, no matter where they were, the disciples of the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace had to retreat three feet when they saw the people of the True Sword Sect. What was going on?
This was a naked humiliation. It was a humiliation to the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace.
Even if they agreed, would the disciples of the Yellow Earth Palace and the Green Wood Palace agree?
Perhaps they would use the prestige of their Patriarchs to restrict them, but they could not control everything.
Everyone stared at Patriarch Yellow Earth and Patriarch Green Wood, waiting for their response.
